Guessing it's a nationwide contract and they're looking for huge numbers.
Locally, Arriva and Stagecoach have been using agency staff for well over a year now, offering rates in the region of £14-16/hr (which is the only way you attract them). Of course there’s also accommodation and the agency’s margin on top of that.
Some PCV drivers are doing it off their own back rather than via agencies, and have been asking for £30/hr (or more!)
I think Stagecoach are down to very small numbers now but Arriva are still using plenty of them.
